We had a very busy 6 months, preparing anf planing for 2 weddings and a new baby. Working full time and being in charge of Jr. Miss this year added to the rat race. Chris and Colleen Thompson have a house in Arizona and invited us to come spend a few days with the. Dave and I went and did pretty much nothing for 4 days. We, or I should say I went swiming,(Dave didn't even ever put his suit on), we played cards and went shopping. We drove over to Lake Pleasant one day which is only about one half hour from their house. Amy and Danette and their children were there as well. It was fun to see their children and spend time with them although it made me miss my grandchilren. Chris and Colleen have been friends for a long time and it was good to spend time with them again.

New Baby!!!

We had a new addition to the family. Delaney Dahlstrom was born on my birthday by c-seciton. She weighed 8lbs and is of course very cute. Melanie is busy with 5 little children. I am so glad they live here close. Everyone else is way too far away!!!

So the wedding turned out wonderful. They make a very cute couple. We had a window of about 10 minutes when they came out of the temple of no rain. We got a few pictures but then got rained out. The green and brown dresses were a hot topic of discussion between the sisters and brother-in-laws. We all decided that Whitney chose them so she would look fabulous (not that she needed any help) Jo and Shawn thought the dresses looked like something Fiona from Shrek would wear or maybe the ugly step sisters. They actually turned out better than we were afraid of. Anyway, we had an amazing turn out at the reception and everyone seemed to have a great time. Ron Howard dj'd the dance. It was all great! Now the happy couple are living in Salt Lake City where they will continue their education.

Whit & Griff Engaged

The McNabbs went to Mexico for a family vacation and invited Whitney to go with them. While they were there Griffin proposed to Whitney on a boat. She said yes and the wedding plans began again. The wedding was planned for June 6th in the Idaho Falls Temple. There were decorations to plan for and dresses to make. Whitney found her wedding dress and before we knew it the day arrived! They looked so happy. The day was perfect except for the rain. They say it brings good luck!

Whitney and Dave went to the airport to meet Griffin upon his return from his mission. The girls and I were busy setting up the reception for Casey and Luke in Nephi. Because Griffin was still set apart as a missionary, all that happened at the airport was a handshake. Griffin went home to Pocatello and Whitney came back to Nephi for the festivities surrounding Casey's wedding. We had a reception in Nephi and then drove home Saturday morning to set up for the reception in Pocatello. Whitney had some school responsibilities on Saturday morning and so she was unable to come home until the reception had started. The hug picutrue is the first real reunion of the the two. That was the begining of an exciting 3 months.

Whitney & Griffin Reunited!
